NYC Law Firms And The Employees They Destroy
A dispatch from CubicleVille, where every day is a roman clef in the making:
In my short time at several prestigious New York firms, I have witnessed enough bad lawyer behavior to fill a full season of reality TV. Partners hurling f-bombs, staplers and Blackberrys at cringing subordinates, sleep-deprived mid-level associates screaming at paralegals to recopy massive boxes of documents in thirty minutes or else file for unemployment, male partners engaging in the full gamut of "inappropriate workplace touching" of young female employees, all before the morning coffee break.
Oooh, they get a morning coffee break before breaking out the lunchtime anal plugs? Cushy!
